The Burlington Free Press recently conducted email interviews with City Council candidates seeking election on Tuesday which is Town Meeting Day. Candidates were asked to limit responses to 80 words per question, focus on how they would serve the city and refrain from personal attacks.

Candidates from Wards 1, 2, 3 and 4 5, 6 and 7 are represented. Ryan Emerson, who is listed on the ballot in Ward 2, announced this month that he had exited the race and did not provide responses.
